Topic description

In the forearm support, the outstretched legs and upper body practically form a line. The legs are placed on the tips of the toes on the helmet and the upper body is supported on the forearms. The forearms lie flat on the floor parallel to each other and the upper arms are vertical (90 degree angle at the elbow joint).

Attention:
Head, torso, hips and knees form a line (do not stretch your buttocks upwards or let them sag, tense your stomach), the hands should not touch each other/be closed.

Lighten:
Knees on the floor (feet held up instead of placed on the object).

Harden:
Additional weight (on the back); unstable support (for the arms).

Variant:
Alternate by raising one leg slightly (foot at heel height).
